ENVO Set to Launch Low Cost Snow Bike to Market

As we all know, the freezing Arctic air has covered most of the Western Canada, which delivers extreme cold to much of Saskatchewan, Alberta, and most uncharacteristically British Columbia. Deep in winter, with delays in public transit and cars sliding everywhere, it might be a good time to look for alternative transportation. The ENVO snow bike is a pedal-assist battery-operated bicycle with an electric snow track in the rear and a snowboard that substitutes the front wheel. It is capable of riding in snow and icy conditions up to 30 centimetres deep.

The Snow bike offers a 1,000-watt motor at a speed of 18 km/h and a range of 10 kilometres, about 2 hours on a single charge. At 34 kg, the snow bike is easily transported and can fit on the back of a truck or SUV.

The snow bike is perfect for those who enjoy cycling but get derailed during the colder months because of weather conditions. Offering great stability and maneuverability, it can climb a 15-degree slope with up to 100 kgs of cargo.

Just under $3,000 ENVO wanted to keep the snowbike kit affordable. 

This is achieved by taking the framework of a regular mountain bike and converting it into a snow bike. For people who like to do things themselves, this kit is perfect as you can buy the parts and assemble them yourself; or if you want a done-for-you solution, ENVO can put everything together. An added bonus is the front snowboard can easily be switched out for a wheel for all-weather conditions.

The Snowbike kit includes the following:

  • Snow track with an integrated hub motor
  • Controller system and interface
  • Accessories to attach the snow track to the rear fork
  • Accessories to attach the snowboard to the front fork

Purchased separately:

  • 48V 17.5Ah down-tube battery and charger
  • 120Cm youth Snowboard + $149
  • Complete Snow Bike kit @ $2789

The prototype has been tested and is almost ready for the market. You can preorder online today.
